But during the summer vacation in 2013,Joanna and Henry noticed a change in their elder son: suddenly he seemed to like talking more to his friends than to his parents. "The door to his room is always shut." said Joanna.Tina and Mark noticed similar changes in their 14-year-old daughter. "She used to sit with me on the sofa and talk," said Mark. "Now we find that she does this only when she wants something. Sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady. The problem is finding out which time is which."Before 11, children like to tell their parents what's on their minds. "In fact, parents are first on the list." said Michael Riera, writer of Uncommon Sense for Parents with Teenagers. "This completely changes during the teen years." Riera explained. "They talk to their friends first, then maybe their teachers, and their parents last."Parents who know what's going on in their teenagers' lives are the best to help them. To break down the wall of silence, parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say, and try to find ways to talk and write to them. And they must give their children some freedom. Another thing parents should remember is that to be a friend, not a manager(管理者), with their children is a better way to know them.6.

Give your children whatever they wantCIn the United States, when one becomes rich, he wants people to know it. And even if he does not become very rich, he wants people to think that he is. That is what ‘keeping up with the Joneses’ is about, It is the story of someone who tried to look as rich as his neighbors.The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American called Arthur Momand. He told this story about himself. He began earning $ 125 a week at the age of 23. That was a lot of money in those days. He got married and moved with his wife to a very rich neighborhood outside New York City. When he saw that rich people rode horses, Momand went horseback riding every day. When he saw that rich people had servants(仆人). Momand and his wife also hired a servant and gave big parties for their new neighbors.It was like a race, but one could never finish this race because one was always trying to keep up. The race ended for Momand and his wife when they could no longer pay for their new way of life. They moved back to an apartment(公寓房间) in New York City.Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with rich life--style of their neighbors. He saw the funny side of it and started to write a lot of short stories, He called it ‘Keeping up with the Joneses’ because ‘Jones’ is a very common name in the United States.’ Ke eping up with the Joneses’ came to mean keeping up with rich lifestyle of the people around you. Momand’s series appeared in different newspapers across the country for over 28 years.People never seem to get tired of keeping up with the Joneses. And there are ‘Jonses’ in every city of the world. But one must get tired of trying to keep up with the Joneses because no matter what one does, Mr. Jones always seems to be ahead.11.
